    Abstract:
    A 46-year-old man had a general health check including an upper gastrointestinal series, gastric endoscopy and biopsy. He was diagnosed as advanced gastric cancer and hospitalized for surgery. Preoperative abdominal CT scan examination was performed, and a mass was incidentally detected in the left kidney. Further examination, ultrasound survey and selective renal angiography, confirmed a renal cancer. The patient had had no macroscopic or microscopic hematuria. Gastric resection with lymph node dissection and left nephrectomy were performed and then both cancers were radically removed. Pathologically, gastric cancer was poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma and renal cancer was carcinoma of the clear cell type.
